[development] #pre_render - forms only?

[Dave Cohen]

Now that the data structures developed for forms are being used for other data 
structures, particularly nodes, is there any reason why the #pre_render 
callback is available only in forms?

I suggest moving the code that calls #pre_render callbacks from 
drupal_render_form() into drupal_render().  

In particular I would like to add #pre_render hooks in my hook_view, so that I 
can tweak the node's content structure before it gets themed.  Right now I 
see no reliable way to do this, short of making a special module with a very 
heavy weight so that it's nodeapi hooks are guaranteed to be called last.

If there is positive feedback to this suggestion, I will submit patches for 
drupal-5.x and head.  Thanks.
